Hiberix is a vaccine that protects against Haemophilus influenzae type b (Hib), a bacterial infection responsible for serious conditions like meningitis and pneumonia. The vaccine is commonly administered to infants and young children, typically as part of their routine immunization schedule, starting at 2 months of age. By boosting the immune system's ability to fight off Hib bacteria, Hiberix helps prevent severe infections. Common side effects are mild, such as pain at the injection site, fever, or irritability. Serious side effects are rare. This vaccine is especially important for young children, as Hib infections can be life-threatening in this age group.
